????????????????????????????????????????????????
no kidding.
All I said was, and I admitted it was a generalization, that according to those I talked to,
INCLUDING muslims, that their own doctors lack of sterilization is the act that spread this disease in their populaces and why their rates of the disease is off the charts!
How saying OTHERS did this to them can be perceived as predudice is beyond me.
What I said was actually a statement in their DEFENSE...stating most of them did not do this to themselves.
It should also be a warning to us all.
Example: I told my doctor in 85 I want NO blood products due to AIDS (and no detection method for screening blood then.... and woke up with a bag of plasma in my arm..
This for a simple shoudler surgery where I barely bled.
this from a highly respected american doctor...so do I think a lot of people have been victimized by inept medical professional...you bet I do.
My problem was I did not get this in writing, and he did it in spite of my instructions.
Without proof in writing it was his word against mine that I told him NOT to do it.
And now I have HCV..
So I know how frustrated these people are with their doctors, I've been there.
Unfortunately, even today that risk exists everywhere.
Las Vegas had a lazy anesthesiologist this year infect hundreds, and a nurse this week from Colorado was in the news and she infected hundreds.
This is happening everywhere...STILL...in spite of all we know.
I'm done with this subject, and I apologize for my part in adding an adjuct to the subject.
My point, which was germaine to the actual issue in my mind at least, was that a lot of people worldwide are being made sick by bad drugs and bad medical practices!

I'm with you on this one, LOVE is the word.....
I'm not following either. My mom, the Muslim from Sweden....
Or .... Turkey.... the Muslim country in Europe, or Mali in Africa, etc... etc...
So, reallly what you are saying is that Middle Easteners are or are not Muslims?
It was getting hard to follow there for a while.
I better check with my husband....the Jehovah's Witness from Lebannon.
Lebannon is in the Middle East, right?
I have got to say that over the 2 years + I have been a member; I have seen a lot of threads take many twist and turns.
This is the first time I have seen one turn this fast, so someone can get on their Soap Box and claim their religion (Atheism).
I see no relevance to this thread just an opportunity.
You can dink a beer anytime you want. Before you found out you had hep c you had a beer, right? What's the difference now? Just a bit of knowledge, that's all. What are you saving yourself for?
